TAKOTNA, Alaska -- Four-time winner Doug Swingley dropped out of the Iditarod Trial Sled Dog race Wednesday, saying he froze his corneas along a treacherous part of the trail. The 50-year-old Lincoln, Mont., musher said he injured his eyes when he took off his goggles because they were fogging up going down the Dalzell Gorge two days ago coming into Rohn. The problem has worsened since.
